The greenery going parallel with the walkway seemed like an uninterrupted line drawn on a sheet. It almost followed me throughout the park wherever I walked, wherever I looked. The weather even being draggy did not affect my spirit. Birds have never allured me much, it was always the wildlife that invited my intense love.
But today when I strained my eyes with Binoculars, it somehow seemed, these birds are vivid, their flight relates a lot with our own emotions. And their behavior and diversity forces one to think about how these creations are actually created, each being carved with a special feature, with a new color and of course a newer beauty.
On each step I took, there was something to discover, be it the little snails..the eggs of frogs..the ants all busy in their work.. the peacock family sitting high on the branch of tree..with the young ones all aligned like an assembly in school..or be it the butterflies playing hide and seek. Throughout the journey, there was a voice which echoed and its frequency kept increasing, as we entered more inside. It was the roar of tigers and lions, which added fuel to my pursuit. Observing a large number of birds, and finally moving further though felt tiring initially, but somehow I felt a drip of glucose going in me, when I entered the Tiger Rescue Area. The sight of black stripes and the movement of tigers and lions was something that increased my pace. Reaching close to them, and watching their actions made me realize the intense pain and torture these creatures must have gone through being in Circuses and other places employing them for entertainment.
It was indeed a great step in the direction of Animal welfare to rescue them, but it aches when we see their condition. Man could never realize that the wilderness was also a creation. And now when we are faced with the fear of its extinction, everybody is talking about their protection. They were there with us since we came to into existence, but the human race failed to understand their importance. The pace of development makes us proud, but how many times do we feel good saving a specie, educating people about their existence. The animal lovers are of course exceptions to this statement.
